Fun Fact
QR Code stands for Quick Response Code. It’s a type of 2D barcode made up of black-and-white squares arranged in a grid. When scanned by a smartphone or QR reader, it instantly directs users to digital content like websites, contact info, or files.
Most smartphones can scan QR codes directly using the camera app. If not, third-party apps are available.
